The neurochemical heterogeneity of the rat striatum was assessed in vivo by measuring subregional changes in extracellular dopamine and DOPAC by in vivo electrochemistry and microdialysis in response to amphetamine and the D2 antagonist,…

The effects of a deletion for the brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) allele (+/- BDNF) upon age-related changes in nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) function were assessed. Behavioral (beam crossing and spontaneous activity) and neurochemical…

In this report we compared three different parameters of nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) function - locomotor activity, striatal dopamine (DA) levels and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC)/DA ratios between heterozygous mutant dopamine…

The influence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) upon the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system was evaluated in weanling and adult mice carrying a targeted inactivated BDNF gene. Regional specificity of this BDNF mutation was assessed by…

The effects of in vivo estrogen treatment upon MPP(+)-induced dopamine (DA) release were determined using in vivo microdialysis in female and male rats. Ovariectomized female rats were implanted or not with an estrogen pellet (0.1 mg, 17beta…

Female mice with a heterozygous mutation of their dopamine transporter (+/- DAT) showed relatively robust reductions in striatal DAT specific binding (38-50%), while +/- DAT males showed modest reductions (24-32%). Significant decreases in substantia…

In the present experiment we compared the effects of continuous versus pulsed infusions of L-beta-3,4,dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) upon dopamine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) release in vitro from superfused corpus striatal tissue…

Determinations of striatal dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) concentrations were compared under conditions where tissue was either frozen followed by extraction (FE) or extracted followed by freezing (EF). In Experiment 1,…
